The rapid growth of urbanization worldwide necessitates reliable infrastructure and efficient
support structures like utility bridges and tunnels. However, the design of such structures has …

Tensegrities can be assembled to construct complex structures and increase the range of
applications. Here, we propose an assembly procedure with diverse division forms to …

The lightweight, highly efficient, and adaptable characteristics of tensegrity structures have
captured the interest of the intelligent structures field. Intelligent tensegrity structures (ITS) …

The in-plane buckling of rigidly jointed C nv-symmetric polygonal ring frames under a
symmetric system of self-equilibrating compressive joint loads is considered. It is shown how …

The cable-strut structures rely entirely on prestressing to provide stiffness, making the design
of prestress crucial. This paper presents a novel method to determine the distribution of …

This paper introduces the 3DNFDM method, which extends the natural force density method
(NFDM) to three-dimensional problems. The NFDM was first proposed by Pauletti in 2006 …

为有效分析张拉整体结构的非线性力学行为, 提出了一种的节点松弛方法. 在每一阶段,
通过对单个或多个并行节点进行连续释放和固定, 将张拉整体结构的整体变形分解为局部节点 …

Las estructuras de tensegridad son un sistema compuesto por barras a compresión y cables
a tensión, conectados entre sí por medio de pasadores, este sistema estructural presenta …

This thesis aimed to determine the conditions and the means of application of the
sclerometric, ultrasonic, pull-off methods, and after appropriate adaptation, the drilling …
